netanyahu, we all know he hasn't always had the warmest relationship. in the words the prime minister spoke and in body language. at one point, the president seemed to be trying to block anyone from lip reading as they were having a little conversation. if this was a success, how does he move it forward? >> let me say you were right. i was at that state dinner sitting right in front of him, and the two of them were slapping each other on the back, whispering in each other's ears, telling each other jokes, and i think whatever negativity there was i think the vast majority of it is gone and we have to move on from here. i think we move on from here by trying to get a peace agreement between israel and the palestinians, but let's put things in perspective. the israelis said they will sit down in face to face negotiations no preconditions and the palestinians have refused, and president obama many times on this trip said the only way you can have a peace agreement is face to face negotiations no preconditions. and the palestinians unfortunately in my opini

netanyahu, to reach out to the israeli people and reaffirm the united states' commitment to them and also sent a message that peace talks should resume. so he sort of got that process, the start of that process under way. of course, peace talks haven't resumed yet. that was one of the president's key goals of his first administration. he wasn't able to do it. i think if he doesn't do it during the second term, he will see that as a failing. i've been talking to some experts in the region who say that, you know, the president has sort of given his secretary of state john kerry the lead on that. secretary kerry engaged on getting the peace talks resumed. the experts say the president needs to remain engaged if he wants to see that really happen. the people are going to watch the president closely to see what he does in the coming weeks to see if he can make progress on that point. >> kristen, what struck me about the tactic the president took on this trip was also to shore up -- we can't underscore the significance of this apology to turkey. we need both turkey and israel in the escala
